Ive been sketching down notes and writing down ideas for a RPG based on this setting. Gathered the comics (groan), all the box set sout so far (major ones, not individual squads), the Dust sourcebook from Dust-Models.com and one of the Dust Modelling books from the same site.
I am heavily leaning toward True 20 for the base system but falling back to the more comic/pulpy combat rules from M&M. I want to avoid any concept of a level system or even references to a power level (but in short, characters would be equal to about M&M Power Level 4 before equipment and 5 or 6 with equipment). Instead of referring to them as power levels or levels, each "level" of character builds would be done in a 5 or 6 step character creation process.
I want to turn Base Attack Bonus, Reflex Save, Damage Save, Fortitude Save and Will Save into skills and use the concept of Damage Reduction Armour over Armour Class.
Any suggestions?
